I finished converting my dozens of X10 lighting/outlet modules to Insteon and ISY994i during the Summer and all has been quite reliable until just recently. I have a Sleep program that turns everything Off at bedtime and just recently various modules have failed to turn off but their status indicates OFF! It's not the same module every time - it varies randomly. I can go to the ISY994i app and click on Off or just run the Sleep program again to get them Off. Similarly, I have a program that turns some things On in the morning and some of those modules have failed to turn on yet report status of ON!
Could this be a noise problem possibly caused by something that has changed recently? We haven't made any house wiring changes, nor installed any new appliances.
1) If Insteon uses line and RF signaling to verify status how can it be consistently wrong? I have enough modules all through the house and outside that signaling should be very reliable.
2) Will my Monterey X10 Powerline Signal/Noise Analysis tool be of use for noise in the Insteon signaling band?
I've been very happy with the Insteon installation up until now. Now it's not as reliable as my X!0 system was.
